Is the disappearance of the jackdaw from the skies of Uzès a sign of the evolution of the rural world? This question serves as the backbone of this quirky documentary HITCHCOCK IN UZÈS, constructed like a crime thriller, which portrays the transformation of this corner of Occitania into a tourist destination and a retirement home for wealthy seniors from all over Europe. This evolution is advocated with remarkable doublespeak by the city’s officials. It is a funny and touching film.

Gardarem les choucas ! *(“Keep the jackdaws alive!” in Occitanian language)

The film is available for streaming on cinémutins (english version available).
